Your efforts matter. You can write in any way that works for you.
Underrated things you can do to support your mental health as a writer:
* Find affirmations that work against your insecurities and imposter syndrome.
* Have a solid or flexible writing routine.
* Drink plenty! Have a favourite drink that you only allow yourself as a treat? That's now your reward for writing.
* Collect compliments and positive reviews in a "compliment bank", either a journal or a spreadsheet, to reflect on when you're struggling.
* Start a self-care journal or self-care kit
Nobody else can write like you can.
